Acellus Academy is excited to announce the new Physical Education course available for high school students as an elective. The course is designed to present students with an understanding of physical fitness and an opportunity to get hearts pumping.
Acellus Academy is excited to bring this course to families, as it not only teaches important health information but incorporates workouts that students can follow along with. The course kicks off with an introduction to Physical Education, safety practices, muscular strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance.
Throughout the course, Dr. Anissa Reilly will guide students through workouts and exercise routines. Students will delve into 17 units, each packed with engaging content, covering a range of topics. The course includes analyzing fitness levels to mastering warm-up and cool-down techniques and focusing on sports like soccer, football, basketball, and baseball. Students will also learn about swimming techniques and activities like tennis, badminton, and volleyball.
This course is awesome!
It would be great if you could offer those courses for lower grades as well.
I agree, I am not as active as I used to be, so helping a child with tons of energy can be difficult. Plus, im not sure if the things i had been taught might be a bit dated. Especially since it’s been over 30 years since I graduated!
I agree! I am looking into a Y membership so I can take my 6th grader 2 days a week for “PE”. It’d be amazing as an elective for middle schoolers.
I agree! My children are in lower grades but, there are so many things that should be discussed around health fitness, activities and proper nutrition. I don’t understand why this is not taught right away so healthy practices are built into habits from a young age rather than waiting until they are in high school. Many children could have already experienced the natural challenges of puberty without a supporting hands from outside the home to encourage positive acceptance of self and understanding.
Great idea, Lisday! We are currently in the process of developing an elementary PE course. Stay tuned!
